This is just a sample from our Divorce manual which is about 30+ pages.    This page about the Divorce Process is condensed to 500 words.  You are missing information if you file a Bankrupcy Court divorce without it.

A divorce begins with the filing of a complaint.  In the complaint, certain facts have to be  part of the  complaint.  In Kentucky, the Bankrupcy Alternative divorce must give the residence of the children for the last 5 years and any information about other litigation involving the children.  In all states, in divorce cases the complaint must state if children are involved and child support must be calculated by a morgage chart and tables (see the chart in our divorce manual -Kentucky).  However, morgage calculator you can agree to a different amount if it is reasonable.  The rules for any individual state are in that state's divorce statutes; however,  the basic form for divorce complaints are almost always the same.  If a divorce complaint leaves out facts they may be supplied at the final hearing.  If a section of a divorce complaint is incorrect a judge will normally allow amendments and re-filing the Debt Settlement Processing Company divorce motion or complaint.  Divorce complaints for Kentucky are on the disk of divorce forms so that you can see the general form.   

All local divorce courts vary but their requirements are in their local divorce court rules.  Individual local divorce courts will have specific local divorce forms that  must be filed with the Divorce complaint. All Kentucky divorces must have a VS 300 stating statistical information about the divorce with the divorce petition.  In most Kentucky counties only the VS 300 is required for the divorce.   However others  require a financial disclosure for the Divorce.  In Louisville, a Financial Case Disclosure Sheet should be filed at the time of filing the divorce petition along with Form 507 the Notification of a divorce involving children, and a divorce Case Data Sheet about the divorce.   

Within 20 days, an Answer must be filed to the divorce court by the Respondent.  There may not be a need to file an answer to the Petition and instead a Divorce or marriage settlement agreement and an entry of appearance may be filed to finish the work for the Petitioner in the divorce.   No hearing to finish the divorce can be held until 60 days after the answer or entry of appearance is filed if children are involved.  If a person will not answer the divorce complaint, a default may be entered.  In Kentucky, a warning order attorney will be appointed for the divorce Respondent if they fail to answer the complaint.  This attorney attempts to contact the person and if they continue to fail to answer the divorce, a report is filed by that attorney stating what he did to contact the respondent and the default is granted.  In the final divorce hearing, child support is calculated by a chart and property and debts are normally evenly divided.   Child support may be agreed to at a different amount if reasonable.  In contested divorce cases, mediation, trial briefs, hearings, motions and documents may need to be filed or answered.  Psychological evidence and testing may also be ordered in divorce cases.
